Arsenal Table £50m For Aubameyang

Arsenal have bid £50m for Borussia Dortmund’s striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, according to reports in Germany.

Kicker magazine reported that The Gunners have made their opening offer for the Gabon international, also stating that the German side are holding out for a sum closer to £60m for the 28 year old.

Aubameyang has scored 21 goals in 23 appearances for Dortmund this season, and scored 141 goals since joining in 2013.

Dortmund CEO, Hans-Joachim Watzke said: “I can confirm that there has been a first request from Arsenal for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. We are not commenting on the sums that have been called from England since noon.”

Aubameyang trained for an hour on Saturday morning after he was left out of Borussia Dortmund’s game against Hertha BSC on Friday but has made it clear he wishes to join Arsenal.

However, in another twist Arsene Wenger speaking yesterday said:

“Aubameyang no, nothing is happening,” he told the BBC after the win over Crystal Palace.

“He can be left out of the Dortmund team for different reasons, certainly not for transfer reasons at the moment.

“January has been difficult for us, destabilising. We have had big players concerned with moving away which causes uncertainty.”
